I don't necessarily have a problem with him starting the 9th, but once he put the tying run on base............................................. I don't get it either.Thats my point. i'm not going to start questioning toman but just doesn't seem like a good call to me.

“We’ve got our best hitters up,” Toman said. “We’ve got the tying run at second and all we want to do is tie the game. I figure we’ve got three whacks with a guy in scoring position, and if you can’t get it done there, then … I’d rather have three whacks at it than two. Unfortunately, we didn’t get it done.”Lang's article on both games
